Snowflakes bigger than I have ever seen in my life.

Raining cats and dogs, horses and goats and everything else, I had already decided I was not even going to try to take a picture(s) today. I honestly thought I would wreck my camera. That is how hard it rained all day. Trust me we need it something fierce also.

But around 3:30 this afternoon it started to snow. Now I don't mean just snow, I mean snowflakes bigger than I have ever seen in my life. Grabbing my camera, I did the best I could do. It just does not begin to capture how huge these flakes were. It also ended almost as quick as it began and started raining again!

 

  

  

 

 I am simply standing on my front porch snapping these.

It's pouring

It's raining !
It's pouring!
And I am not venturing too far out to get a picture! LOL1
So here's a couple drips, and believe me when I say we really need this rain and I got soaking wet just taking these!
PEACE!!!

Its pouring big drips!

Fire and Pine Needles

Dave, the hubby is out doing one last pine needle raking and burning before the snow is suppose to fly tomorrow night. He is out on the street doing this to also help thaw out the ground. This is a newly finished deck and we are making sure that the rain nor melting snow is going to go into the newly built basement.

Plus There is just something about fire that I think mesmerizes most humans. I know it does myself.

And it looks to me that he may be enjoying this a bit!

And that it really can't be called work.

And of course he could not even get it done without our dog "Buick" showing the way!
